    Conversion from epub to txt is a highly lossy process, there’s a lot of formatting that gets thrown away.

    Regardless of how individual ebook readers may display epubs a little differently, epub is an open format so I would recommend keeping it in that form at least for archival purposes.

      Calibre let’s you save multiple versions of files. As long as they don’t go out of their way to delete the epub version, you can have as many formats of the same book as you want, grouped under the same item.
